Yuan Kangdi received the good news from Jiang Hong and Li Xing, and he didn't sleep all night in excitement.

So much so that when I went to court the next day, I had big dark circles under my eyes.

And among the courtiers, there are also several people with dark circles under their eyes.

They also didn't sleep well all night.

Of course, they are not excited, but thinking about how to deal with the changes in the situation today.

Among them are Zhou Fu of the Cabinet and Zhou Kang, the secretary of the household department.

They had already received the news that Zhou Shichang was beheaded by the crown prince last night.

At the same time, Old Man Zhou was angry that Zhou Fu's protection was unfavorable, and ordered someone to beat Zhou Fu to death.

Zhou Fu did not sit still, but resisted and ran away from the Zhou family.

The rest of the dark circles are officials who are inextricably linked to the Zhou family.

They were worried that the Zhou family would lose power and be implicated.

Yuan Kangdi sat on the dragon chair and looked down.

Seeing that Taiwei Liu, an old guy who was an ally of the Zhou family, his face was ruddy and his complexion was excellent.

Don't be angry, why is this old guy so old and so energetic?

Thinking of this, Yuan Kangdi felt that he had to go to Liu Guifei tonight to get this interest back.

With Qin Jin's sentence that there is something to do early, nothing to retreat from the court, the court meeting begins.

Before Emperor Yuan Kangdi could speak, Zhou Fu, the first assistant of the cabinet, and Zhou Kang, the head of the household department, had already come out of the ranks and took the initiative to resign.

The reason is straightforward.

That is, as a member of the Zhou family, he didn't even notice Zhou Shichang's disobedience, saying that the two of them were standing on top of the court without shame.

This is a typical retreat as an advance.

voluntarily resigned, and also defended.

It means Zhou Shichang's rebellion, and their entire Zhou family doesn't know about it.

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, there is not a single fool.

I have long seen through this trick.

knew that the next drama was the time when the emperor and the Zhou family began to exchange interests.

So they all shut up and didn't get involved.

Taiwei Liu, who has been sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai platform, glanced at the two of them, and once again showed that he had nothing to do with himself.

Yuan Kangdi didn't expect the two to know current affairs so well.

However, he also knew that it was unrealistic to actually remove the two.

After all, the Empress Dowager is still alive.

He's going to have to give them some face.

Therefore, he said: "Zhou Shichang was bewitched by the Heavenly God Sect, not all of them are the responsibility of the Zhou family, you two feel ashamed, and it shows that you two have a clear conscience, how can I treat the sins of the ministers because of the incompetence of a gentleman." ”

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"

Zhou Fu and Zhou Kang burst into tears at this time.

It's hard to speak, and after talking for a long time, I was slowly tearful and moved.

When Lao Chen saw this scene, he said in his heart that the acting skills of these two people have improved.

Those new young imperial historians, seeing this scene, couldn't help but sigh, Your Majesty is really a saint and a god.

The two Zhou adults, who also know Jun En, are so grateful.

The elderly imperial historian opened his mouth, wanting to expose the two, but after thinking about it carefully, the Zhou family is a relative, and if he really wants to hold on to the crime of rebellion, I am afraid that not only will he not be able to move to the Zhou family, but he will also cause death.

In the end, he chose forbearance.

Just when everyone was thinking about it.

The two of them were finally moved and said the complete words.

I saw Zhou Fu said: "Your Majesty's holy candle shines, and the ministers are grateful, and they must do their best to die." ”

Zhou Kang also hurriedly echoed: "Minister, I think the same way." ”

"The loyalty of the two of you, I already know, Zhou Shichang's rebellion is a state affair and a family matter, my brother-in-law Zhou Zhizheng, how to deal with it, you two must know!"

Yuan Kangdi saw the two responding, so he put forward his first condition.

Although Zhou Fu and Zhou Kang had already been mentally prepared.

But when I really heard that Your Majesty was going to kill Zhou Zhizheng, I couldn't help but be shocked.

The two couldn't help but glance at each other.

They all see the meaning in each other's eyes.

So the two of them said in unison: "Your Majesty, the two of us already know, and when we go back, we will persuade the little uncle to focus on the overall situation." ”

"That's very good, by the way, and your Zhou family is in the northwest, and the three thousand light cavalry trained for me will not need you to pay for it in the future, so give it to the prince!"

The emperor again put forward the conditions.

Zhou Fu and Zhou Kang, although they were ten thousand unwilling in their hearts.

But thinking of the situation in the northwest at this time, I knew that the two of them disagreed.

I'm afraid that it won't be long before the ability of the crown prince and Li Xing will also annex this cavalry.

It's better to give it to the emperor now, lest the emperor keep staring at their Zhou family in the future, and ruin their plans for decades.

Zhou Fu saluted the emperor and said against his will: "Your Majesty is so sympathetic to the Zhou family, and I thank Your Majesty for your Majesty's grace." ”

"Alright, you two are in the list!"

The Emperor told them to get up.

Then he said to the ministers: "The Northwest primary election is such a big event, and the Tusi is involved in it, it is imperative to change the land and return to the stream, everyone should talk about it!" ”
